The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to deal with in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank is going to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances fairly quickly.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be completely wet and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NG16 Postcode - New Eastwood Misfueling

What a great night's sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Sunday and we were on my way to help an older lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel mint green Toyota Highlander Hybrid in New Eastwood. I had been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up along a country road along the way to visit her godchildren. I got the location punched in the TomTom and was with her within 60 minutes. I reached the destination and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she told me, "I'm becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only acquired it a week ago because my other car, which I had used for about twenty five years, finally died on me". I got the drain done and she gifted me a toffee and said thank you. Such a delightful Nottinghamshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car New Eastwood

I'm not overly hot for working Sundays, and last week was no different. I'd only just left home after having a superb roast prepared for me by the missus, and I was en route to assist a guy after he had put the wrong fuel in his cyan Range Rover Evoque. He was stationed in New Eastwood hence it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. As I drove up at the vehicle and started work he said to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my concentration on other things and failed to ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought about some damage by running it?" I revealed that truth be told there probably should not be any harm and that I would personally remove the wrong fuel immediately. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and yet another delighted motorist was able to carry on with their journey without any subsequent bother. The guy couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what makes operating on Sundays in Nottinghamshire just that tiny bit better for me personally!

Wrong Fuel Doctor New Eastwood - Fuel Rescue New Eastwood

A driver from New Eastwood with her children in her diesel super Dodge Sprinter had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Co Op filling station. She contacted us sobbing and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and did not know what would happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that all would be okay and that she would be back in action in no time at all. When we arrived she was visible upset but as our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the kids on board."

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
